Chapter 524: Can't Be Stayed

It is impossible for twins to be pregnant to term, and Hui Niang is about to give birth in a month or two. When a woman gives birth, she is already passing through a ghost gate, not to mention, she is still an elderly mother.

So, what better time to solve the problem than to give birth through her? Or, there is no need for others to start, and Hui Niang herself may not be able to get through it.

However, at such a juncture, can someone make a stalk and no one make a stalk?

Mu Shaoqin raised his hand and pressed his temples with a faint pain, obviously distressed by this question for a long time.

After being quiet for a while, he said slowly, "Your grandfather said that he wanted to take advantage of the good weather to go back to the countryside." After all, the ancestral business of the Shi family is over there, and they also want to return to their roots. You said, Dad took this opportunity to ask the emperor for a grace, withdraw this Ping Palace, and go back with your mother, okay? ”

Nian Fu was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

Since my mother's life experience was revealed, my grandfather has always had an indescribable apology for them. Kind-hearted people, they don't think about their hard work to raise Hui Niang, save Mu Shaoqin, and pull Da Nianfu to have any credit, but because of the exposure of Hui Niang's identity, they feel that they live in Pingwangfu, and after a few good days, they feel as if they have done something wrong, and even the next time they eat chopsticks, they have to be said again and again.

Mu Shaoqin felt very sad in his heart. In fact, Hui Niang's bad mood also has an impact on this. She tried hard to tell her father and mother that no matter what, they were her own parents. But the two old men refused to be the same as before, especially Aunt Shi, who felt like a liar. Don't even say anything when you're uncomfortable, and people will grow old when they look at it.

Nianfu knew in her heart that Hui Niang's life experience had not been exposed, and her grandmother could lie to herself, Hui Niang was her daughter, as she said herself, but she had changed her shell and came back. But now that the tragic truth is so bloody in front of everyone, she can't lie to herself anymore.

In my heart, I not only feel guilty about my dead daughter, but also guilty of hiding Father Shi, and even more guilty about hiding Hui Niang. How can an old man who is on the verge of death stand it?

and Daddy Shi. On the surface, it looks better than my wife. But he often sat there all day, and he didn't know what to think, and if you asked him, he wouldn't say anything.

Even with Shi Gui. It's been a lot more honest this time. Creeping like a restrained bunny.

Mu Shaoqin couldn't see it. But in my heart I understand everything.

So he wanted to leave, not only to reassure the emperor, but also to take the second elder of the Shi family out of the sad place of the capital. Return to their hometown, in their familiar environment, to rediscover the joy of life.

Nianfu was very conflicted.

Intellectually speaking, she also felt that letting her grandfather go back to her hometown was actually the best choice. But emotionally, she is really reluctant.

Because she couldn't leave the capital, not only because of Mrs. Ouyang Kang. Also, Nianfu vaguely understood in his heart that if their whole family ran out, this would really make the emperor feel uneasy.

After thinking about it for a while, Nian Fu said, "Dad, even if the emperor is willing to let you go, will the Queen Mother be willing?" ”

Mu Shaoqin was stunned, when he was a child, he had heard some old things about his own sister and Empress Meng. I didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it, I understand it thoroughly.

I'm afraid that the eldest sister doesn't like Hui Niang, and she also has a sense of anger. The emotional thing is the most unpredictable, that is, Mu Shaoqin wants to persuade but doesn't know where to start.

At this time, the daughter said again, "If we lose the protection of the Ping Palace, with the current identity of the mother, what will we do to protect her?" Even if you hide in the countryside, I'm afraid that you may not be able to get peace, right? ”

Mu Shaoqin was shocked, and Nianfu smiled bitterly, "Dad, if you think this method is feasible, you have already told the emperor, and you will not delay it until this time." In fact, you know in your heart that this is not going to work, right? ”

Mu Shaoqin sighed and said that he had completely said what he wanted, and he didn't need to make any more disguises, he completely took off his mask, and for the first time showed his exhaustion and helplessness in front of his daughter.

"Nianfu, help my father, how do you let your mother let our family survive this catastrophe safely?"

Nianfu hung his head, didn't look at his father, and said in a low voice, "Actually, Dad, you have already understood in your heart, if you want to completely let your mother and let our family get peace, there is only one way." ”

Mu Shaoqin looked at her daughter's phantom in front of her, and her fingertips turned white little by little.

The same word weighed heavily on his and Nianfu's hearts.

Die.

Unless this is the case, Hui Niang will never have a peaceful day.

Ouyang Kang left home, went straight to the palace, and went to the emperor.

Zhuo Ge came to him this time and asked for money, but he didn't just ask for money.

Because the emperor wanted to use force against Min Ye, he mobilized a lot of soldiers and horses to Haiphong, because he planned to send Gongsun Hong to guard the border in the near future.

Zhuo Ge also wanted to follow him back to the grassland, but he knew that he could not directly manage Gao Xian to the military power, so he thought of a compromise method, he wanted to go there to do business.

Because Zhuo Rilie pacified the grassland, he reopened the tea and horse division at the border with Daliang, so that the two places could trade.

Zhuoge's excuse was that he stayed in the capital all day and did nothing, so it was better to help out with some business over there, and use his familiarity with the grassland to ensure that Daliang would not suffer in the transaction.

Anyway, the contradiction between him and Zhuo Rilie is already on the table, will he still pit the big beam and help his eldest brother?

However, he can't say this directly, so he has to ask Ouyang Kang to talk about it.

Of course, Gao Xian knew what he had in mind, only when he made money, did he have the strength to cultivate power, otherwise he would be a bare-bones commander, and if he wanted to return to the grassland and make a big move, it would be a dream.

Squinting and thinking about it, Gao Xian agreed, "Okay, since he wants to sleep, I gave him this pillow." ”

He smiled suddenly, and took out a copy of the fold and gave it to Ouyang Kang, "Your 200,000 taels of silver have all been recovered, I want to thank you for making such a great contribution for me." ”

Ouyang Kang hurriedly said, "The ministers just make some small ones, and they all depend on the emperor's heavenly grace." Besides, behind this, it is all His Majesty's worries, and he really doesn't do anything about the ministers. ”

He broke the silver into pieces and gave it to the people to scatter and take to Beijing. But Gao Xian felt that it was too troublesome, so he directly ordered to designate a few post stations in Lingzhou to collect the people's tax silver, and then directly distributed this batch of silver to the place where it should be used. Now to fight Min Ye, most of the money used is this batch of silver taels. There is no need for the emperor to pay for it, because he is extremely resolute.

Gao Xian said with a smile, "Merit is meritorious." I promised you that I would pay you back the money when I received it. You gave 5,000, and I will pay you back 10,000 now. ”

Ouyang Kang pinched his fingers in his sleeve and plotted, he was asked to go to 5,000 by Zhuo Ge last time, and he asked to go to 5,000 this time. The emperor gave 10,000 yuan, well, it's good, anyway, you don't have to pay for it yourself, so you decisively thank the lord Longen.

However, the emperor was still quite interesting, although he didn't take advantage of Ouyang Kang in terms of money, but he gave him a batch of valuable supplements.

just took Ouyang Kang's double chin that was about to pop up and joked, "These are for your daughter-in-law, don't eat them all on you." ”

Ouyang Kang's face turned red, it seems that the emperor is also from the past, and he has a deep understanding.

He retired here, and the emperor didn't know what he was thinking, and unconsciously stroked the wrench on his hand.

Chengping knew that this was a matter of hesitation and indecision for the emperor, just like before he disposed of the Pei family last time, the emperor also thought about it for a long time.

However, when the emperor came to his senses, he issued a holy decree that had nothing to do with Ouyang Kang and the Mu family.

The society is responsible for raising soldiers. Especially the princes and grandchildren, how can they sit idly by?

It was decided by the emperor to let a few royal princes with titles go to various poor areas of the old and young to become vassals. Among them, the kings of Chu and Qi are of particular interest.

The king of Chu set Songzhou, and the king of Qi set Gaozhou.

The same poor mountains and bad waters, but considering that the king of Chu is weak, the road to Songzhou is slightly closer, and Gaozhou is even farther away.

The palace was the first to get the news, and the princes who had previously wanted to be crowned kings were relieved, because there was no prince, but they were able to stay in the capital.

It didn't take long, and Empress Dowager Mu came to find it.

Gao Xian also thought that she was here to intercede for King Qi of Chu, but she didn't expect that Empress Dowager Mu had suffered a lot of blows in the past one or two years, and she had learned a lot, and she did not intercede for the two emperors and grandsons, but wanted to ask for a favor for them.

“…… Since they are gone, those concubines and children will naturally follow, but if some of them are pregnant, or children of two or three years old, how can they withstand such a long journey? Why don't you give them a grace and let them stay. ”

That's right, Gao Xian readily agreed, and praised a few words of mother's kindness.

Empress Dowager Mu smiled slightly, raised her hand to signal Chengping to clear the scene, and then said to Gao Xian, "There is one thing, the mourning family originally wanted to do it themselves, and forget it if they bear this notoriety." But I am afraid that the emperor will misunderstand, so if I think about it, I should tell the emperor first, so as not to go back and blame the old mourning family for being confused. ”

Gao Xian's expression was stunned, "What did the queen mother say?" ”

Empress Dowager Mu covered her mouth with a handkerchief, "Princess Ping is about to give birth, and the mourning family thought, so I sent her away." ”

Gao Xian's pupils shrank, and Mrs. Mu was now mourning, "I am also a woman, and I am also a mother, how can I not know that I am really ruthless in doing this?" But she really couldn't stay. ”

She sighed, "The dead Princess Taikang is alive again, this news is just circulating in the capital, it makes people panic, if you find evidence......"

She suddenly said righteously, "It's for the sake of the Liang country, and the infamy on her back, the mourning family must also take care of her!" Your Majesty, don't worry about this matter. ”

Seeing Gao Xian's silence, Empress Dowager Mu was relieved, and said more majestically, "And that Luo Xiaoyan......"

"That's enough, Queen Mother." Gao Xian said with a cold face, "I have my own opinions on this matter. Please come back. ”

Looking at his attitude, Empress Dowager Mu noticed some subtle differences.

That little mute can't move for the time being, but Hui Niang-

Hmph, Meng Junyan, since she is your daughter, she is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of our Mu family, let alone being worshiped by our Daliang Dynasty!

(Mmmm, do you see the rhythm of distributing lunch boxes?) (To be continued......)
